The Central Toronto area provides convenient access to excellent public and private schools, shopping, parks and recreation and great transit service.

Yonge and Eglinton neighbourhoods such as Chaplin Estates will be experiencing some fantastic new changes in the near future in my opinion. As per the city of Toronto’s own web site www.Toronto.ca the Yonge and Eglinton Centre, along with a number of other areas, has been identified as a location where Toronto would like to encourage major investment and accommodate some of the anticipated growth.

The goal of the Yonge-Eglinton Centre review is to bring forward new Secondary Plan policies and Urban Design guidelines to direct future development in the Yonge-Eglinton Centre in a manner which is compatible with the existing surrounding neighbourhoods.

I feel it safe to expect local property values to increase with removal and redevelopments of the existing bus station and the homes that front on the East side of Duplex ave to Berwick ave and around the corner on the North side of Berwick Ave.

Local home owners should welcome a new parkette of Duplex Ave and the new 3 story Townhomes going in on Duplex Ave. Also the new 14 story Condo building that will be built on Berwick close to Yonge St. Last but not least the new commercial retail and office space that will be built along the South side of Eglinton Ave West of Yonge St.
